Service Indicator Reset D2 Facelift
I'm not sure if this has been covered exactly in another thread, but I only found D3 references on how to reset without VCDS.
I was being lazy and couldn't be bothered to get the VCDS laptop out. 
I found multiple versions online, this is the one that worked for me (2003 D2 S8): http://forums.quattroworld.com/a8/msgs/50085.phtml
You might need 3 hands though if the steering lock is latched tightly. 
1. - Hold in the "000.0" button (trip-odometer reset, on far right of instrument cluster) WHILE turning the key to ignition.
2. - Release button and leave ignition key on.
3. - Push the "Check" button on the far left of instrument cluster.
4. - You should see a message saying "Next Service 10,000 Miles".
Though mine said 9300 miles.... maybe because it's been nagging for a while?
